OverviewAI-generated summary

Marissa S. Fullerton's research focuses on microbial infections and host responses. Her work investigates the mechanisms by which pathogens, such as Coxiella burnetii and Borrelia duttonii, interact with human cells and the immune system. She has explored the potential of neurotransmitter system-targeting drugs to inhibit the growth of Coxiella burnetii in human cells and has examined the role of microRNAs in the host's response to this pathogen. Additionally, her research includes the development and validation of systems for the genetic manipulation of tick-borne relapsing fever spirochetes like Borrelia duttonii, contributing to the study of bacterial genetics and biotechnology. Fullerton collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Daniel E. Voth, Katelynn R. Brann, Richard C. Kurten, and Punsiri M. Colonne, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications.
